Bridge and Tunnel and The Pajama Game reviews

So, I went to see Bridge and Tunnel followed by The Pajama Game.

Bridge and Tunnel should win best special theatrical event. The show was amazing. Sarah Jones changes characters like nobody else. My favorite was when she was the old lady (cant give away rest). GO SEE IT! BEST PLAY EVER!

The Pajama Game, however was ok (5/10). When I went, the audience was acting crazy. They were laughing at every single moment of the show, even when its was not supposed to be funny. For me, this production was ok. Harry was good, but needs to lossen up in the role. He seemed to serious (made me think he had batteries running). Kelli, however, hit all the marks. She was especially great in "I'm Not at All in Love." Michael McKean was fine. However, his comedy bits were a little over the top. Although, his dancing was great along with his timing. Everyone else did a fair job. Mabye I am not a loud person, but I thought the whole show was to commercialized due to the sets and the people who attended (Wicked screams. No joke!) However, Roz was absolutley great. She nearly stole the entire show. I did not stage door this show because it got a little hetic.

I hope these reviews were helpfull. Go see Bridge and Tunnel before it ends its limited engagment. It will be your moneys worth.

My 5/10 is a definite for this one

Well that's it. Don't invite the critics. I guess this is the end-all be-all of reviews. No need to depend on professionals.

Of course this is a preview. I am suprized though that the audience did not have good taste. They just laughed at anything that was over the top. Hopefully, the show will have some intelligent changes. Calling the show "adorable" is definitley well stated. I call it commercialized. Will see what happens.

for all of you who thought B/T was amazing please tell me how so.i found it very antiseptic and detached. i do think her vocal abilities are amazing. but in terms of connection. i found none. so please give me specifics.

Sarah Jones took good moments in the show, that were in depth. I certanily think that The Pajama Game was to fake. Bridge and Tunnel was a form of art, not a form of commercialized material. If you want to see a breakthrough actrees, Bridge and Tunnel is the only place you will find one. A video is on CBS2, which shows video and a review. Some critics did not get the idea.

I don't think Bridge & Tunnel is the "best play ever" - but I'm sure its pretty good.

As for the Pajama Game - the entire show is just cheesy. That's just the show, not the direction. Its going to look cheesy to modern audiences. I think the ppl who attended are the ppl with whom the show is aimed at, seems to me they got it. They weren't trying to have Piazza, its Pajama Game, there's no big overall deep meaning.

Hi, i'm new

There are audience written reviews in the New York Times about the pajama game, so i read them, and find the one negative review there is spam, which is beside the point, point is it's kinda negative, same as JerseyScoundrel has written here, so now i wonder why you are so negative about it?

Enjoy reading the pajama reviews here, thanks

I would say it's a pretty safe bet. She is, in my opinion, the best part of the show. Not that the show isn't great, in my opinion, but she is the standout.
